On March 29, 2010, Idaho Governor Butch Otter signed into law a bill that provides for a Wilderness specialty lisence plate for the State of Idaho. The bill, which was sponsored and championed by Representative Shirley Ringo of Moscow, will be available for purchase by Idaho residents beginning on February 1, 2011. The plate will cost Idaho vehicle registrants an additional $25 per year over normal vehicle registration fees. The additional fees will provide $12 per year to the Selway-Bitterroot Foundation for wilderness stewardship efforts, and $13 per year to the Idaho state highway account.
To purchase your Idaho Wilderness License Plate, just go to your local DMV office after February 1, 2011, and tell them you want the Wilderness plate. If you’d like a personalized plate, you can go online here to order your plate. Put Idaho’s greatest legacy on your car today!
